BACKGROUND

This disclosure relates to a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same. In a semiconductor device including a plurality of resistor elements, in a case in which a region in which patterns such as wires are densely formed and a region in which the patterns are sparsely formed are present, a width of the wire in the region in which the patterns are sparsely formed is smaller than a width of the wire in the region in which the patterns are densely formed. This has been known as a micro-loading effect. The micro-loading effect causes variations in resistance values of resistor elements. There are disclosed techniques listed below. [Patent Document 1] Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication. No. H09-311432 Patent Document 1 discloses a semiconductor device in which a dummy pattern having a pattern width substantially same as that of a real pattern is formed in an outer peripheral portion not formed with a pattern (real pattern) constituting a circuit is formed. In the semiconductor device, as compared with a semiconductor device not formed with a dummy pattern, a difference due to the pattern density is reduced.

SUMMARY

In a semiconductor device including an analog circuit that is highly precise, further reduction in variations of resistance values of a plurality of resistor elements included in the highly precise analog circuit has been required. For example, a semiconductor device including a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), variations have been required to he smaller than 0.2% a center value of the resistance values of the plurality of resistor elements. The present inventors have confirmed that, in the semiconductor device disclosed in Patent Document 1, if the outer peripheral portion in which the dummy pattern is formed and which is not used for a circuit is not wide enough, variations of the resistance values of plurality of resistor elements in the real pattern become larger than 0.2% of the center value of each resistance value.

A value obtained by dividing a total value of areas of the second overlapping regions by a width of each of the second resistor layers in the first direct direction is smaller than a value obtained by dividing a total value areas of the first overlapping regions by a width of each of the first resistor layer in the first direction. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device in which variations of resistance values of a plurality of resistor elements are reduced, achieving reduction of an outer peripheral portion which is not used for a circuit.

Hereinafter, the embodiments will be described with reference to drawings. However, in the following description, the same or equivalent components are denoted by the same reference characters, and the repetitive description thereof will be omitted. First Embodiment Configuration of Semiconductor Device A semiconductor device MCP 1 according to the first embodiment a digital-to-analog converter including a ladder resistor circuit network. In the semiconductor device MCP 1 , a plurality of resistor elements for dividing voltage input to the ladder resistor circuit network are formed. The plurality of resistor elements are each disposed in an array. As shown in FIG. 1 , in plan view, the semiconductor device MCP 1 extends along a first direction X and a second direction Y orthogonal to the first direction X. The semiconductor device MCP 1 has a first region R 1 and a second region R 2 . The first region R 1 is disposed inside the second region R 2 the first direction X. The first region R 1 is continuous to the second region R 2 in the first direction X. The second region R 2 is positioned on the outermost side of the first direction X, in a region in which a real pattern constituting the ladder resistor circuit network in the semiconductor device MCP 1 is formed, for example. The semiconductor device MCP 1 does not have a dummy region in which a dummy pattern is formed, for example. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , each of the plurality of resistor elements is formed in each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 . The plurality of resistor elements formed in the second region R 2 each have a structure substantially same as that of each of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the first region R 1 . Resistance values of the plurality of resistor elements are equal to each other. Here, that resistance values of the plurality of resistor elements are equal to each other means that a variation of the resistance value of each of the resistor elements falls within 0.2% of a design value. Resistance values of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the second region R 2 are equal to each other and equal to resistance values of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the first region R 1 . In other words, with the resistance value of each of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the first region R 1 as a reference, a variation of the resistance value of each of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the second region R 2 falls within 0.2%. As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 , the semiconductor device MCP 1 includes, for example, a semiconductor substrate SUB, an interlayer insulation layer INI 0 , a wiring layer LM 1 , a lower wiring layer LM 10 , an interlayer insulation layer INI 1 , a plurality of resistor layers LR, an interlayer insulation layer INI 2 , an upper wiring layer LM 20 , and a passivation film PV. A part of each of the wiring layer LM 1 , the lower wiring layer LM 10 , the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 , the plurality of resistor layers LR, the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 , the upper wiring layer LM 20 , and the passivation film PV is formed on the first region R 1 . The other part of each of the wiring layer LM 1 , the lower wiring layer LM 10 , the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 , the plurality of resistor layers LR, the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 , the upper wiring layer LM 20 , and the passivation film PV is formed on the second region R 2 . The interlayer insulation layer INI 0 is formed over an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate SUB. The wiring layer LM 1 and a pair of lower wiring layers LM 10 are disposed in contact with an upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 . The wiring layer LM 1 and the pair of lower wiring layers LM 10 are buried in the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 . The interlayer insulation layer INI 1 is disposed in contact with the upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 . An upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 formed on each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 is planarized. The plurality of resistor layers LR are disposed in contact with the upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 . The resistor layer LR is buried in the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 . The interlayer insulation layer INI 2 is disposed in contact with the upper surface of the inter layer insulation layer INI 1 . The upper wiring layer LM 20 is disposed in contact with an upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 . The upper wiring layer LM 20 is buried in the passivation film PV, for example. In each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 , each of the plurality of resistor elements is formed between the semiconductor substrate SUB and the passivation film PV. Each of the plurality of resistor elements includes the resistor layer LR, the pair of lower wiring layers LM 10 , a pair of upper wiring layers LM 20 , and the wiring layer LM 1 . Each of the plurality of resistor layers LR is disposed in contact with the upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 . The respective resistor layers LR of the plurality of resistor elements are disposed at an interval so as to be spaced apart from each other in the first direction X, and extend in the second direction Y orthogonal to the first direction X. The respective resistor layers LR of the plurality of resistor elements are formed in the same layer. From a different perspective, the respective resistor layers LR of the plurality of resistor elements are manufactured in the same step of the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, and heights of the resistor layers LR from a main surface (an upper surface) of the semiconductor substrate SUB are equal to each other. A thickness of each of the plurality of resistor layers LR is equal to or more than 1 nm and equal to or less than 20 nm, for example. Preferably, the thickness of each of the plurality of resistor layers LR is equal to or less than 10 nm. Each of the plurality of resistor layers LR is made of a material containing a metal. In other words, each of the plurality of resistor layers LR is a thin-film metal resistor. The material included in each of the plurality of resistor layers LR includes at least one selected from a group consisting of silicon chromium (SiCr), silicon chromium doped with carbon (SiCrC), nickel chromium (NiCr), titanium nitride (TIN), and tantalum nitride (TaN). Each of the pair of lower wiring layers LM 10 is electrically connected with each of both ends of the resistor layers LR in the second direction Y through a via VA 1 . Each of the pair of upper wiring layers LM 20 is electrically connected with each of the lower wiring layers LM 10 through a via VA 2 . Although it is sufficient if the material included in the semiconductor substrate SUB is any semiconductor material, it includes silicon (Si), for example. Although it is sufficient if the material included in each of the interlayer insulation layers INI 0 , INI 1 , and INI 2 is any material having an electrical insulating property, it includes silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) or silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ), for example. Although it is sufficient if the material included in the passivation film PV is any material having an electrical insulating property, it includes silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) or polyimide, for example. A thermal expansion coefficient of the material included in the semiconductor substrate SUB is smaller than a thermal expansion coefficient of the material included in the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 . Although it is sufficient if the material included in each of the lower wiring layer LM 10 and the upper wiring layer LM 20 is any material having a conductive property, it includes aluminum (Al), for example. The plurality of resistor elements formed in the first region R 1 and the plurality of resistor elements formed in the second region R 2 differ from each other in width in the first direction X and interval in the first direction X of each of the resistor layers LR. As shown in FIG. 2 , each of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the first region R 1 has, as the resistor layer, the first resistor layer LR 1 . Each of the plurality of resistor elements formed in the second region R 2 has, as the resistor layer, the second resistor layer LR 2 . The plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 are disposed inside the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X. Respective widths W 1 of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X are equal to each other. Respective intervals D 1 between adjacent ones of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X are equal to each other. That the widths W 1 of the first resistor layers LR in the first direction X are equal to each other and the intervals D 1 between adjacent ones of the first resistor layers LR 1 are equal to each other means that a dimensional difference between the two first resistor layers LR 1 adjacent to each other relative to a dimension of one of the two first resistor layers LR 1 adjacent to each other is within 0.2%. The width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X gradually becomes smaller as the second resistor layer LR 2 is located closer to the outside in the first direction X. Specifically, a difference in width of each of the two second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X that are adjacent to each other in the first direction X is larger than 0.2% of the width of one of the second resistor layers LR 2 described above. The interval between adjacent ones of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X gradually becomes larger, as the second resistor layer LR 2 is located closer to the outside in the first direction X. A width W 21 of the second resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X adjacent to the first resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X is smaller than the width W 1 of the first resistor layer LR 1 in the first direction X. A width W 22 of the second resistor layer LR 22 in the first direction X adjacent to the second resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X is smaller than the width W 21 of the second resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X. A width W 23 of the second resistor layer LR 23 in the first direction X adjacent to the second resistor layer LR 22 in the first direction X is smaller than the width W 22 of the second resistor layer LR 22 in the first direction X. An interval D 21 between the second resistor layer LR 21 and the second resistor layer LR 22 in the first direction X is larger than an interval D 20 between the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X. An interval D 22 between the second resistor layer LR 22 and the second resistor layer LR 23 in the first direction X are larger than the interval D 21 between the second resistor layer LR 21 and the second resistor layer LR 22 in the first direction X. Incidentally, that the intervals D 20 to D 22 and the widths W 21 to W 23 are varied means that, regarding the two second resistor layers LR 2 to be compared with each other, a dimensional difference between both of the second resistor layers LR 2 relative to a dimension of one of the second resistor layers LR 2 is larger than 0.1%. In the first region R 1 , the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 are relatively densely disposed in the second region R 2 , the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 are relatively sparsely disposed. A total value of an area occupied by the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 per unit area of the second region R 2 is smaller than a total value of an area occupied by the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 per unit area of the first region R 1 . As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 6 , the wiring layer LM 1 is disposed below the plurality of resistor layers LR in such a manner overlapping with the plurality of resistor layers LR, in plan view. The wiring layer LM 1 is disposed in contact with the upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 . A thickness of the wiring layer LM 1 is larger than a thickness of the resistor layer LR. The wiring layer LM 1 is formed in the same layer as the lower wiring layer LM 10 , for example. From a different perspective, the wiring layer LM 1 and the lower wiring layer LM 10 are formed in the same step in the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, and respective heights from the main surface (upper surface) of the semiconductor substrate SUB are equal to each other. The wiring layer LM 1 includes a first wiring portion LM 11 , a second wiring portion LM 12 , a third wiring portion LM 13 , and a fourth wiring portion LM 14 , for example. Each of the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 extends in the first direction X and is disposed at an interval in the second direction Y so as to be spaced apart from each other. In other words, the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 extend in parallel to each other. Respective widths W 3 of the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 in the second direction Y are equal to each other, for example. The first wiring portion LM 11 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , the fourth wiring portion LM 14 , and the second wiring portion LM 12 are disposed side by side in the second direction Y in this order, for example. An interval between the first wiring portion LM 11 and the third wiring portion LM 13 in the second direction Y, an interval between the third wiring portion LM 13 and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 in the second direction Y, and an interval between the fourth wiring portion LM 14 and the second wiring portion LM 12 in the second direction Y are equal to one another. These intervals described above are equal to the width W 3 described above, for example. The wiring layer LM 1 includes a plurality of sets of wiring patterns, each set including the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 , for example. The plurality of sets of wiring patterns are disposed side by side in the second direction Y.

A width of each of the second overlapping regions OVL 23 in the first direction X is equal to the width of the second resistor layer LR 23 in the first direction X. A width of the second overlapping region OVL 23 in the second direction Y is equal to the width W 3 of the first wiring portion LM 11 in the second direction Y.

The maximum value L 3 is equal to a distance between one first wiring portion LM 11 and another first wiring portion LM 11 in the second direction Y that are disposed to sandwich the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 therebetween. A minimum value of the interval between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 23 in the second direction Y is equal to the interval between the first wiring portion LM 11 and the third wiring portion LM 13 in the second direction Y, the interval between the third wiring portion LM 13 and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 in the second direction Y, the interval between the fourth wiring portion LM 14 and the second wiring portion LM 12 in the second direction Y, and the interval between the second wiring portion LM 12 and the first wiring portion LM 11 in the second direction Y. A total value of respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 is smaller than a total value of respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 . The total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 is different depending on a position of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X.

A value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X is smallest in the values obtained by dividing the total values of the respective areas of the second overlapping regions of each of second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X. A ratio (data ratio) occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 per unit area smaller than a ratio occupied by each of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 per unit area. A ratio occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is relatively closer to the outside in the first direction X per unit area is smaller than a ratio occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is relatively closer to the inner side in the first direction X per unit area. A ratio occupied by each of the second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X per unit area is smallest in the ratios occupied by each of the second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 per unit area. A total value (total area) of respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions OVL 21 of the second resistor layer LR 21 is smaller than a total value of respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of one of the first resistor layers LR 1 . A value (a second value) obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions OVL 21 of the second resistor layer LR 21 by the width W 21 of the second resistor layer LR 21 in the first direction X is smaller than a value (a first value) obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width W 1 of the first resistor layer LR 1 in the first direction X.

Method of Manufacturing Semiconductor Device As shown in FIG. 7 , in the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 1 , first, a semiconductor substrate SUB is prepared (step S 10 ). In step S 10 , the semiconductor substrate SUB having an interlayer insulation layer INI 0 formed over an upper surface thereof is prepared. Secondly, a wiring layer LM 1 and a lower wiring layer LM 10 are formed on the semiconductor substrate SUB with the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 interposed therebetween (step S 20 ). In step S 20 , first, a metal film is formed over an upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 . Secondly, the metal film is patterned by photolithography. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 8 , the wiring layer LM 1 and the lower wiring layer LM 10 are each formed from the metal film. Note that, in FIG. 8 to FIG. 12 , illustration of the semiconductor substrate SUB and the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 is omitted. Thirdly, an interlayer insulation layer INI 1 and a via VA 1 are formed on the wiring layer LM 1 and the lower wiring layer LM 10 (step S 30 ). In step S 30 , first, an interlayer insulation film is formed over the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 , the wiring layer LM 1 , and the lower wiring layer LM 10 . Secondly, the interlayer insulation film is subjected to planarization processing. The planarization processing is, for example, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). Thirdly, a contact hole is formed in the interlayer insulation film. The contact hole is formed in such a manner as to open part of the lower wiring layer LM 10 . Fourthly, a conductive film is formed in such a manner as to bury the interior of the contact hole. A material included in the conductive film includes tungsten (W), for example. Fifthly, part of the conductive film and part of the interlayer insulation film are removed by the CMP. In this manner, as shown in FIG. 9 , the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 is formed from the interlayer insulation film, and the via VA 1 is formed from the conductive film. A size of the wiring layer LM 1 in the present step S 30 is set on the basis of an estimated value of a dimensional variation of the resistor layer LR that is expected in step S 40 . The estimated value of the dimensional variation of the resistor layer LR is obtained from a preliminary experiment or the like. Fourthly, the resistor layer LR is formed on the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 and the via VA 1 (step S 40 ). In step S 40 , first, a metal resistive thin film is formed over the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 and the via VA 1 . Secondly, the metal resistive thin film is patterned by photolithography. More specifically, a photosensitive thin film is subjected to exposure and development by use of an optical mask (reticle), and a masking pattern for patterning the resistor layer is thus formed. Next, with the masking pattern used as an etching mask, the metal resistive thin film that is exposed in an opening portion of the masking pattern is removed. In the optical mask, dimensions of the patterns for forming a plurality of resistor layers LR are equal to each other. In contrast, a thickness of the photosensitive thin film becomes larger as the photosensitive thin film is closer to the outside in the first direction X. Since the thickness of the photosensitive thin film is slightly varied in the first direction X, an area ratio of each opening portion of the mask pattern becomes lower as the opening portion is closer to the outside in the first direction X. Accordingly, an etching rate of the resistor layer in the second region R 2 is increased more than an etching rate of the resistor layer in the first region R 1 , and in addition, the etching rate of the resistor layer in the second region R 2 is further increased as the resistor layer is closer to the outside in the first direction X (micro-loading effect). Hence, as shown in FIG. 10 , a plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 and a plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 are formed from the metal resistive thin film. Variations in width and interval of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X described above are caused by the micro-loading effect described above. Fifthly, an interlayer insulation layer INI 2 and a via VA 2 are formed on the resistor layer LR (step S 50 ). In step S 50 , first, an interlayer insulation film is formed over the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 , the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 , and the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 . Secondly, the interlayer insulation film is subjected to planarization processing. The planarization processing is chemical mechanical polishing (CMP), for example. Thirdly, a contact hole is formed in the interlayer insulation film. The contact hole is formed in such a manner as to open another part of the lower wiring layer LM 10 . Fourthly, a conductive film is formed in such a manner as to bury the interior of the contact hole. A material included in the conductive film includes tungsten (W), for example. Fifthly, part of the conductive film and part of the interlayer insulation film are removed by CMP. In this manner, as shown in FIG. 11 , the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 is formed from the interlayer insulation film, and the via VA 2 is formed from the conductive film. Sixthly, an upper wiring layer LM 20 is formed on the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 and the via VA 2 (step S 60 ). In step S 60 , first, a metal film is formed over upper surfaces of the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 and the via VA 2 . Secondly, the metal film is patterned by photolithography. Accordingly, the upper wiring layer LM 20 is formed from the metal film. Seventhly, a passivation film PV is formed over the upper wiring layer LM 20 (step S 70 ). In step S 70 , first, the passivation film PV is formed over upper surfaces of the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 and the upper wiring layer LM 20 . In this manner, as shown in FIG. 12 , a plurality of resistor elements are formed between the semiconductor substrate SUB and the passivation film PV. Effect of Semiconductor Device An effect of the semiconductor device MCP 1 will be described as compared with a semiconductor device according to a first comparative example shown in FIG. 13 . In the semiconductor device according to the first comparative example shown in FIG. 13 , as in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X is smaller than the width of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X due to the micro-loading effect, and as a result, the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 is smaller than the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 . In contrast, the semiconductor device according to the first comparative example is different from the semiconductor device MCP 1 in that a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X is equal to a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width of the first resistor layer LR 1 in the first direction X. In the first comparative example shown in FIG. 13 , due to the micro-loading effect, a resistance value of the second resistor layer LR 2 is higher than a resistance value of the first resistor layer LR 1 , and its increase rate is larger than 0.2% (see FIG. 14 ). Accordingly, the semiconductor device in which an allowable value of a variation rate of the resistance value of each resistor element falls within 0.2% needs to secure the number of resistor elements whose variation rate of the resistance value falls within 0.2% by making the first region wider and to set the second region R 2 as a dummy region, thereby making it difficult to downsize plane dimensions of the semiconductor device. The present inventors have experimentally confirmed that, as a value obtained by dividing a total value of areas of overlapping regions of a resistor layer and a wiring layer by a width of the resistor layer becomes smaller, a resistance value of the resistor layer becomes smaller. FIG. 15 is a graph indicating that, when resistor elements 1 to 4 in which intervals between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 in the second direction Y are different from each other are compared with each other, a resistance value of one resistor layer LR of each of the resistor elements 1 to 4 has been varied according to an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 in the second direction Y. An axis of abscissas in FIG. 15 indicates an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 (μm) in the second direction Y, and an axis of ordinate in FIG. 15 indicates a variation rate (%) of a resistance value of each of the resistor elements 1 to 4 , with a resistance value of the resistor element 1 as a reference. A width of each of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of each of the resistor elements in the second direction Y was set to be 0.5 μm. A length of each of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of each of the resistor elements in the first direction X was set to be 5 μm or more. A width of each of the resistor layers LR of each of the resistor elements in the first direction X was set to be 5 μm, and a length of the resistor layer LR in the second direction Y was set to be 25 μm. An interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of the resistor element 1 in the second direction Y was set to be 0.5 μm, an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of the resistor element 2 in the second direction Y was set to be 1.0 μm, an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of the resistor element 3 in the second direction Y was set to be 2.0 μm, and an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 of the resistor element 4 in the second direction Y was set to be 4.0 μm. A data ratio of the resistor element 1 was set to be 50%, a data ratio of the resistor element 2 was set to be 33%, a data ratio of the resistor element 3 was set to be 20%, a data ratio of the resistor element 4 was set to be 11%. In the resistor elements 1 to 4 , as the interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 in the second direction Y is longer, a distance between overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and the wiring layer LM 1 becomes longer, and accordingly, a value obtained by dividing a total value of areas of the overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and the wiring layer LM 1 by the width of the resistor layer LR becomes small. As indicated in FIG. 15 , as an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 in the second direction Y was longer and the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and the wiring layer LM 1 by the width of the resistor layer LR became smaller, the resistance value was decreased. The result of the experiment above will be described below. A resistance value of the resistor layer LR as a thin film metal resistor is decreased as a stress applied to the resistor layer LR is larger. For example, in a film-forming step of forming the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 or the passivation film PV over the semiconductor substrate SUB or other steps, generation of the stress to be applied to the resistor layer LR is caused by a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the semiconductor substrate SUB and the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 or the passivation film PV. In plan view, the wiring layer LM 1 that is disposed in such a manner as to overlap with the resistor layer LR buffers the stress applied to the resistor layer LR with the interlayer insulation layer INI 1 interposed therebetween. Hence, as the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and wiring layer LM 1 by the width of the resistor layer LR becomes smaller, the stress applied to the resistor layer LR becomes larger, and as a result, the resistance value of the resistor layer LR is likely to be decreased. According to the above description, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layer LR 2 by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X is set to be smaller than a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X. Consequently, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the stress applied to the second resistor layer LR 2 with a relatively small width is larger than the stress applied to the first resistor layer LR 1 with a relatively large width. As a result, a decrease rate of the resistance value of the second resistor layer LR 2 due to the stress is larger than a decrease rate of the resistance value of the first resistor layer LR 1 , and a variation in resistance value caused by a difference in width in the first direction X between the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 2 can be reduced. Specifically, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , without providing an outer peripheral portion (dummy region) that is not used for a circuit, a variation in resistance value of the resistor layer LR in each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 can further be reduced, as compared with the semiconductor device according to the first comparative example. Moreover, the present inventors have confirmed that an interval between adjacent ones of the plurality of wiring layers LM 1 in the second direction Y is adjusted in the order of several hundreds of nanometers (the data ratio above is adjusted in the order of substantially 10%), allowing a decrease rate of the resistance value of the resistor layer LR to be adjusted in the order of substantially 0.2% within a range of substantially 1% (see FIG. 15 ). An increase rate of the resistance value of the resistor layer due to the micro-loading effect is substantially 0.2% or more and 0.6% or less. In other words, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , a decrease rate of the resistance value of the resistor layer LR can easily be adjusted in such a manner as to offset the increase rate of the resistance value due to the micro-loading effect. Also, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , an adjustment accuracy of the decrease rate of the resistance value of each of the resistor layers LR does not depend on a magnitude of the width of each of the resistor layers LR in the first direction X and the interval between adjacent ones of the resistor layers LR in the first direction X. For example, it is relatively easy to adjust the date rate in the order of substantially 10%, even in a case in which the width of each of the resistor layers LR in the first direction X and the interval between adjacent ones of the resistor layers LR in the first direction X are set to be smaller than 100 nm. Whereas miniaturization of the resistor element has been developed, the semiconductor device MCP 1 can also reduce a variation of the resistance value of the resistor element that has been further miniaturized. Further, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , each of the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 is disposed closer to the outside than each of the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 , and the total value of the areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located relatively closer to the outside in the first direction X is smaller than the total value of the areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located relatively closer to the inner side in the first direction X. As a result, as indicated with a straight line C in FIG. 16 , in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , a decreasing tendency B of the resistance value caused by the effect of buffering the stress applied to the resistor layer LR by the wiring layer LM 1 can effectively offset an increasing tendency A of the resistance value due to the micro-loading effect. In the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the wiring layer LM 1 has the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 . In the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the total value of the areas of each of the first overlapping region and the second overlapping region can be adjusted according to the length of each of the wiring portions in the first direction X and the interval between adjacent ones of the wiring portions in the second direction Y. Regarding the length of each of the wiring portions in the first direction X, it is only sufficient to adjust whether or not each of the wiring portions overlaps with each of the second resistor layers LR 2 , and accordingly, it is sufficient if the length of each of the wiring portions in the first direction X is adjusted in the order of several hundreds of nanometers that is substantially same as the interval between adjacent ones of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X. In addition, as described above, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , by adjusting the interval between adjacent ones of the wiring portions in the second direction Y in the order of several hundreds of nanometers, the resistance value of each of the resistor layers can be adjusted in the order of 0.1%. Hence, in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , a variation in resistance value of the resistor layer LR in each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 can relatively easily be reduced. In the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the wiring layer LM 1 is formed below the plurality of resistor layers LR. In this case, the wiring layer LM 1 can be formed simultaneously as the lower wiring layer LM 10 in the step of forming the lower wiring layer LM 10 . In other words, the semiconductor device MCP 1 can be manufactured without accompanying an increase in the number of manufacturing steps, as compared with the conventional semiconductor device including the lower wiring layer. Since the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 2 are each a thin film metal resistor, application of stress causes the resistance value of each of the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 2 to be decreased. A material included in each of the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 2 includes at least one selected from the group consisting of silicon chromium (SiCr), silicon chromium doped with carbon (SiCrC), nickel chromium (NiCr), titanium nitride (TiN), and tantalum nitride (TaN). The material above can relatively easily be processed. According to the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 1 , it is possible to easily manufacture the semiconductor device MCP 1 by adjusting the length of each of the wiring portion in the first direction Xs and the interval between adjacent ones of the wiring portions in the second direction Y in the order of several hundreds of nanometers. Second Embodiment As shown in FIG. 17 to FIG. 19 , the semiconductor device MCP 2 according to the second embodiment has basically the same configuration as that of the semiconductor device MCP 1 according to the first embodiment, but the semiconductor device MCP 2 according to the second embodiment is different from the semiconductor device MCP 1 in that a width W 4 of the first overlapping region OVL 1 in the second direction Y is larger than a width W 5 of the second overlapping region OVL 21 in the second direction Y. In the following, differences between the semiconductor device MCP 2 and the semiconductor device MCP 1 will mainly be described. Note that, in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19 , illustration of the semiconductor substrate SUB and the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 is omitted. The wiring layer LM 1 includes, for example, a plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 . A width of the fifth wiring portion LM 15 in the second direction Y becomes smaller in a stepwise manner as the fifth wiring portion LM 15 is closer to the outside in the first direction X. Each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 has, for example, a first part LM 151 , a second part M 152 , a third part LM 153 , and a fourth part LM 154 . The first part LM 151 overlaps with each of the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 , in plan view. The second part LM 152 overlaps with the second resistor layer LR 21 , in plan view. The third part LM 153 overlaps with the second resistor layer LR 22 , in plan view. The fourth part LM 154 overlaps with the second resistor layer LR 23 , in plan view. In each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 , a width of each of the first part LM 151 , the second part LM 152 , the third part LM 153 , and the fourth part LM 154 in the second direction Y becomes narrower, in the order described above. Each of the plurality of first resistor layers LR 1 includes the first overlapping region OVL 1 overlapping with the first part LM 151 of each of the fifth wiring portions LM 15 , plan view. The second resistor layer LR 21 includes the second overlapping region OVL 21 overlapping with the second part LM 152 of each of the fifth wiring portions LM 15 , in plan view. The second resistor layer LR 22 includes the second overlapping region OVL 22 overlapping with the third part LM 153 of each of the fifth wiring portions LM 15 , in plan view. The second resistor layer LR 23 includes the second overlapping region OVL 23 overlapping with the fourth part LM 154 of each of the fifth wiring portions LM 15 , in plan view. The width W 4 of each of the first overlapping regions OVL 1 in the second direction Y is equal to a width of the first part LM 151 of each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y. The width W 5 of each of the second overlapping regions OVL 21 in the second direction Y is equal to a width of the second part LM 152 of each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y. A width W 6 of each of the second overlapping regions OVL 22 in the second direction Y is equal to a width of the third part LM 153 of each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 the second direction Y. A width W 7 of each of the second overlapping regions OVL 23 in the second direction Y is equal to a width of the fourth part LM 154 of each of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y. An interval L 5 between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 21 in the second direction Y is longer than an interval L 4 between adjacent ones of the first overlapping regions OVL 1 in the second direction Y. An interval L 6 between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 22 in the second direction Y is longer than the interval L 5 between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 21 in the second direction Y. An interval L 7 between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 23 in the second direction Y is longer than the interval L 6 between adjacent ones of the second overlapping regions OVL 22 in the second direction Y. The widths W 4 of the first parts LM 151 of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y are equal to each other, for example. The widths W 5 of the second parts LM 152 of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y are equal to each other, for example. The widths W 6 of the third parts LM 153 of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y are equal to each other, for example. The widths W 7 of the fourth parts LM 154 of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y are equal to each other, for example. Note that the respective widths of the first to the fourth parts LM 151 to LM 154 of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 may be different from one another. Also in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X is smaller than a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X. A value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located relatively closer to the outside in the first direction X by the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X is smaller than a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located relatively closer to the inner side in the first direction X by the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X. A value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X is smallest in the values obtained by dividing the total values of the respective areas of the second overlapping regions of each of second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X. Also in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , a ratio (data ratio) occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 per unit area is smaller than a ratio occupied by each of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 per unit area. A ratio occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LPL that is relatively closer to the outside in the first direction X per unit area is smaller than a ratio occupied by each of the plurality of second overlapping regions OVL 2 of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is relatively closer to the inner side in the first direction X per unit area. A ratio occupied by each of the second overlapping regions of the second resistor layer LR 2 that is located on the outermost side in the first direction X per unit area is smallest in the ratios occupied by each of the second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 per unit area. Accordingly, also in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , as in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , as the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and wiring layer LM 1 by the width of the resistor layer LR becomes smaller, the stress applied to the resistor layer LR becomes larger, and as a result, the resistance value of the resistor layer LR is likely to be decreased. More specifically, also in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , an effect similar to the semiconductor device MCP 1 is attained. For example, in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , without providing a dummy region that is not used for a circuit, a variation in resistance value of the resistor layer LR in each of the first region R 1 and the second region R 2 can further be reduced, as compared with a semiconductor device according to a second comparative example shown in FIG. 20 . In the semiconductor device according to the second comparative example shown in FIG. 20 , as in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , the width of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 in the first direction X is smaller than the width of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 in the first direction X due to the micro-loading effect, and as a result, the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 is smaller than the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 . In contrast, the semiconductor device according to the second comparative example is different from the semiconductor device MCP 2 in that a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X is equal to a value obtained by dividing the total value of the respective areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions OVL 1 of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width of the first resistor layer LR 1 in the first direction X. Also in the second comparative example, due to the micro-loading effect, a resistance value of the second resistor layer LR 2 is higher than a resistance value of the first resistor layer LR 1 , and its increase rate is larger than 0.2%. Accordingly, the semiconductor device in which an allowable value of a variation rate of the resistance value of each resistor element falls within 0.2% needs to secure the number of resistor elements whose variation rate of the resistance value falls within 0.2% by making the first region wider and to set the second region R 2 as a dummy region, thereby making it difficult to downsize plane dimensions of the semiconductor device. In contrast, in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , as in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , the stress applied to the second resistor layer LR 2 having the relatively small width is larger than the stress applied to the first resistor layer LR 1 having the relatively large width. As a result, the decrease rate of the resistance value of the second resistor layer LR 2 due to the stress becomes larger than the decrease rate of the resistance value of the first resistor layer LR 1 , and consequently, a variation in resistance value due to the difference in width in the first direction X between the first resistor layer LR 1 and the second resistor layer LR 2 can be reduced. Moreover, in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , by adjusting the width of the wiring layer LM 1 in the second direction Y, it is possible to adjust the resistance value of each resistor layer LR. Hence, also in the semiconductor device MCP 2 , the resistance value of each resistor layer LR can be adjusted with high accuracy. The semiconductor device MCP 2 can be manufactured by the same method as the semiconductor device MCP 1 . Third Embodiment As shown in FIG. 21 to FIG. 23 , a semiconductor device MCP 3 according to the third embodiment has basically the same configuration as that of the semiconductor device MCP 1 according to the first embodiment, but the semiconductor device MCP 3 according to the third embodiment is different from the semiconductor device MCP 1 in that the semiconductor device MCP 3 includes a wiring layer LM 2 that is disposed above the plurality of resistor layers LR and that is provided so as to overlap with the plurality of resistor layers LR in plan view, in place of the wiring layer LM 1 . In the following, differences between the semiconductor device MCP 3 and the semiconductor device MCP 1 will mainly be described. Note that, in FIG. 22 and FIG. 24 , illustration of the semiconductor substrate SUB and the interlayer insulation layer INI 0 is omitted. The wiring layer LM 2 of the semiconductor device MCP 3 has basically the same configuration as the wiring layer LM 1 of the semiconductor device MCP 1 and is different from the wiring layer LM 1 in that the wiring layer LM 2 is disposed above the plurality of resistor layers LR. The wiring layer LM 2 includes a sixth wiring portion LM 21 , a seventh wiring portion LM 22 , an eighth wiring portion LM 23 , and a ninth wiring portion LM 24 which have different lengths in the first direction X from each other. The wiring layer LM 2 is disposed in contact with the upper surface of the interlayer insulation layer INI 2 . The wiring layer LM 2 is formed in the same layer as the upper wiring layer LM 20 , for example. From a different perspective, the wiring layer LM 2 and the upper wiring layer LM 20 are formed in the same step of the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, and the heights thereof from the main surface (upper surface) of the semiconductor substrate SUB are equal to each other. Also in the semiconductor device MCP 3 , as in the semiconductor device MCP 1 , as the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the overlapping regions of the resistor layer LR and the wiring layers LM 2 by the width of the resistor layer LR becomes smaller, the stress applied to the resistor layer LR becomes larger, the resistance value of the resistor layer LR is likely to be decreased. Specifically, also in the semiconductor device MCP 3 , the similar effect as the semiconductor device MCP 1 is attained. As shown in FIG. 24 , the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 3 is different from the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 1 in that the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 3 includes a step S 21 of forming the lower wiring layer LM 10 , instead of the step S 20 of forming the wiring layer LM 1 and the lower wiring layer LM 10 and that the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 3 includes a step S 61 of forming the wiring layer LM 2 and the upper wiring layer LM 20 , instead of the step S 60 of forming the upper wiring layer LM 20 . According to the method of manufacturing the semiconductor device MCP 3 , adjusting of a length of each wiring portion in the first direction X and an interval between adjacent ones of the wiring portions in the second direction Y in the order of several hundreds of nanometers makes it possible to manufacture the semiconductor device MCP 3 easily. Note that, except that the wiring layer LM 2 disposed above the plurality of resistor layers LR is provided so as to overlap with the plurality of resistor layers LR in plan view, the semiconductor device MCP 3 may include the same configuration as that of the semiconductor device MCP 2 . Fourth Embodiment As shown in FIG. 25 , the semiconductor device MCP 4 according to the fourth embodiment includes basically the same configuration as the semiconductor device MCP 1 according to the first embodiment and is different from the semiconductor device MCP 1 in that, in addition to the wiring layer LM 1 , the wiring layer LM 2 that is disposed above the plurality of resistor layers LR and that is provided so as to overlap with the plurality of resistor layers LR in plan view is further provided. The first overlapping region is a partial region of the first resistor layer LR 1 overlapping with at least any of the wiring layer LM 1 and the wiring layer LM 2 , in plan view. The second overlapping region is a partial region of the second resistor layer LR 2 overlapping at least any of the wiring layer LM 1 and the wiring layer LM 2 , in plan view. Also in the semiconductor device MCP 4 , the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the plurality of second overlapping regions of each of the second resistor layers LR 2 by the width of the second resistor layer LR 2 in the first direction X is smaller than the value obtained by dividing the total value of the areas of the plurality of first overlapping regions of each of the first resistor layers LR 1 by the width of the first resistor layer LR 1 in the first direction X. Also in the semiconductor device MCP 4 , the same effect as the semiconductor device MCP 1 is attained. Note that the semiconductor device MCP 4 may include the same configuration as that of the semiconductor device MCP 2 , except that the wiring layer LM 2 is further provided in addition to the wiring layer LM 1 . MODIFICATION In the semiconductor devices MCP 1 , MCP 2 , and MCP 4 , the plurality of second resistor layers LR 2 may include one or more other second resistor layers LR 2 outside the second resistor layer LR 23 . In this case, the wiring layer LM 1 may further include one or more other wiring portions having a region overlapping with the other second resistor layers LR 2 , in plan view, in addition to the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 . In the semiconductor devices MCP 1 , MCP 2 , and MCP 4 , the number of wiring portion in the wiring layer LM 1 is not particularly limited to any. In the semiconductor devices MCP 1 , MCP 2 , and MCP 4 , the wiring layer LM 1 continuously extends along the first direction X, but this is not limitative. At least part of the wiring layer LM 1 may be formed intermittently in the first direction X. In this case, the wiring layer LM 1 has a pair of ends that are disposed between two adjacent ones of the resistor layers LR in the first direction X, in plan view. In the semiconductor devices MCP 1 and MCP 4 , the wiring layer LM 1 includes the first wiring portion LM 11 , the second wiring portion LM 12 , the third wiring portion LM 13 , and the fourth wiring portion LM 14 which have different lengths in the first direction X from each other, but this is not limitative. Similarly, in the semiconductor devices MCP 3 and MCP 4 , the wiring layer LM 2 includes the sixth wiring portion LM 21 , the seventh wiring portion LM 22 , the eighth wiring portion LM 23 , and the ninth wiring portion LM 24 which have different lengths in the first direction X from each other, but this is not limitative. Each of the wiring layer LM 1 and the wiring layer LM 2 may include at least two wiring portions which have different lengths in the first direction X from each other. In the semiconductor devices MCP 2 , respective widths of the plurality of fifth wiring portions LM 15 in the second direction Y may be different from each other. In the foregoing, the invention made by the present inventors has been specifically described based on the embodiments, but it goes without saying that this invention is not limited to the embodiments described above and can variously be modified within the range not departing from the gist thereof.
